He’s in his late 70’s… just let him ride it out in his cave.

TheG00DShot 662 points 2h ago

Don't they know anything about dudes in caves in Israel? He'll just be back in like 3 days.

Just wait until his dad finds out about this

Holy fuck….I wish I had an award to give you. That’s hilarious!

32mattoa 1 points 45m ago

It's okay. Reddit's bad mistakes will take them away anyways

ForeverSquirrelled42 1 points 39m ago

For now, though, I’m glad this comment is getting the attention. It’s funny af!

ForeverSquirrelled42 253 points 1h ago

From what I’ve read over the years, Israel is really good at kicking people out of their homes. Maybe a little too good.

eorld 1 points 45m ago

Yeah if his religion was different he would've been evicted decades ago

I guess they couldn’t get a bulldozer down there.

yak_danielz 66 points 2h ago

they have a missile battery trained on the dwelling. they gave him 12hrs to pack

JacobTepper 1 points 10m ago

If you read the article, it says they're giving him time to prepare an appeal, but yeah, the whole situation sucks.

bikingfencer 72 points 1h ago

Yeah, we lived two blocks inland from him; what a pain in the ass he was all those years. I never actually saw him.

TheSpatulaOfLove 37 points 1h ago

What was he doing to be a pain in the ass?

bikingfencer 107 points 1h ago

living free and harmlessly

TheSpatulaOfLove 37 points 1h ago

Ah, I totally missed your sarcasm!

Thanks for replying.

You have a National treasure and you don't even see it. Some Countries honor their artists. Israel punishes them.

SideburnSundays 49 points 1h ago

50 shekels says they want to demolish the area to appease the posh neighbors and/or develop a new posh development there.

KingBretwald 1 points 56m ago

Israel? ISRAEL is worried about illegal squatters?

Hypocrite, much?

MAD_ELMO 1 points 49m ago

Israel evicting anybody just feels cringe

tactical_laziness 12 points 2h ago

wonder who will move in

BIindsight 1 points 30m ago

This almost feels like the longest AP article I've ever read. I feel like they usually cap out at a couple of sentences, max.

PsychLegalMind 16 points 1h ago

Definition of a squatter. Israel has its own meaning of who a squatter is. It includes millions.

Edited for typo.

ThrillHammer 1 points 23m ago

I'm sure a lot of people in the west bank can relate. The Irony.

ThadCastleRules_G 12 points 1h ago

This should be a spicy comment section

NeonsStyle 1 points 48m ago

Israel is doing the same thing to the settlers as the Nazi's did to the Jews. Forced relocation! The good people of Israel should be hanging their head in shame for electing Netanyahu and seeing the actions he's been taking. When you reach for the Strongman, you unleash death!

younikorn 1 points 5m ago

Id say the settlers are the last people who’d be a victim of bibi’s crimes against humanity

bikingfencer -2 points 2h ago

This has to be a troll

CoalCrackerKid 1 points 19m ago

Leave this "settler" alone

Israel Does not represent Judaism.

Xerit 22 points 1h ago

Actually, like it or not, being an ethenostate means they do represent Judaism, even if other Jewish people might wish it werent so. For the rest of the world who dont know any different Israel and Judaism are intrinsically linked which is why calling out Israels awful domestic policy gets you called an anti-semite.

> Religion in Israel is manifested primarily in Judaism, the ethnic religion of the Jewish people. The State of Israel declares itself as a "Jewish and democratic state" and is the only country in the world with a Jewish-majority population

It’s also the only country in the middle east with a minority of native middle easten people.

Zarxon 1 points 46m ago

It is a shame, but they are synonymous.. I’m not a fan of the Israeli government and their racist genocidal policies. I also have no issues with Jewish people or their culture. I wish people would separate the two as well

Please reread the comment. Have a good day.

They've long since lost the right the be referred to as oppressed
